Description

Description: Latest release of data (anonymized) collected in informal settlements in Côte d'Ivoire and Kenya during my PhD thesis, with the respective metadata (questionnaire files). Please note that some data (geolocation, specific age of participant, and health facilities used) have been ommitted due to personal data protection concerns.

Includes: Data (CSV), questonnaires (XLS), and Jupyter notebooks summarizing the data (using Python).

Ethical clearance: We obtained ethical clearance in Switzerland from EPFL’s HREC (decision n° 068-2020), in Kenya from KEMRI (KEMRI/RES/7/3/1) and the National Commission for Science, Technology & Innovation (NACOSTI/P/21/10921), and in Côte d’Ivoire from the National Health and Life Sciences Ethics Committee (Comité National d’Éthique des Sciences de la Vie et de la Santé, ref. n° 005-22/MSHPCMU/CNESVS-km).
